Highlanders Get One-Run Win at Minnesota
The Minnesota Loons got a superb performance from designated hitter Júlio Vargas. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Asheville. The Highlanders won the game, 6-5. In spite of the loss, Vargas was named the player of the game. He was 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Asheville has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

Jeffery Simpson's hit in the top of the ninth was a game-changer. With two out, he rapped a cutter from Quan Shiu for a run-scoring single. It put Asheville in front, 6-5.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Simpson. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
